| Summary |
"The History of Germain Street Baptist Church, St. John, N.B., for its first one hundred years" is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume commemorates the church's centennial, tracing its origins from its formation in 1810 through to its centenary celebration in 1910. The work reflects on the significant events, challenges, and contributions of the church and its community over the century, delving into the lives of early members and pastors who helped shape its legacy. The opening of this historical account outlines the context for compiling the church's history—including the difficulties in gathering accurate records due to a devastating fire that destroyed many documents. The introduction indicates that T. D. Denham, along with other church officials, undertook this challenging task with limited resources. It highlights key figures in the church's early days, recounting the efforts of ministers like Rev. Edward Manning and Rev. Joseph Crandall, who played pivotal roles in establishing and nurturing the church community. The historical narrative promises to engage readers with personal stories, accounts of significant milestones, and reflections on the church’s enduring mission.
